Good morning.

“Unprecedented times” doesn’t quite mean anything anymore, does it? 

We’re all pretty numb to the insanity of AI company CapEx, tariff shenanigans, and ~5x gains in just a year (ahem, HOOD).

And yet, we have to keep trying to understand the market, make sense of it all, and take the best trades we can with the information we’re given. 

Good news is, you’re not alone. We’ve got you covered.

Today’s key headlines:

  • Snapchat Blew Earnings Out of the Water

  • “China Is Going to Win the AI Race” – Nvidia CEO

  • OpenAI Does Not Look Financially Healthy

  • Trump called Fed Chair Powell a New Name

Let’s get cooking.

The AI Race Just Went Nuclear — Own the Rails.

Meta, Google, and Microsoft just reported record profits — and record AI infrastructure spending:

  • Meta boosted its AI budget to as much as $72 billion this year.

  • Google raised its estimate to $93 billion for 2025.

  • Microsoft is following suit, investing heavily in AI data centers and decision layers.

While Wall Street reacts, the message is clear: AI infrastructure is the next trillion-dollar frontier.

RAD Intel already builds that infrastructure — the AI decision layer powering marketing performance for Fortune 1000 brands. Backed by Adobe, Fidelity Ventures, and insiders from Google, Meta, and Amazon, the company has raised $50M+, grown valuation 4,900%, and doubled sales contracts in 2025 with seven-figure contracts secured.

Shares remain $0.81 until Nov 20, then the price changes.

👉 Invest in RAD Intel before the next share-price move.

📰 Market Headlines

Markets bounced back on Wednesday as investors shook off Tuesday's tech sell-off.

  • The S&P 500 gained 0.4%, the Nasdaq rose 0.7%, and the Dow jumped 0.5%

Snapchat (SNAP) shares are up 25% after an absolutely legendary earnings call: the company posted huge earnings and revenue beats AND announced a $400 million partnership with Perplexity for conversational AI AND declared a $500 million stock buyback.

  • Earnings per share (EPS): -$0.6 vs. -$0.12 expected

  • Revenue: $1.51 billion vs. $1.49 billion expected

Robinhood (HOOD) shares are down even though the company beat earnings and revenue expectations yesterday (it doubled its revenue year over year!). That’s because it failed to meet transaction-based revenue expectations specifically, which is another way to say “trading activity was lower than expected.” The actual transaction-based revenue was $730 million vs. StreetAccount’s $739 million estimate.

  • EPS: $0.61 vs. $0.53 expected

  • Revenue: $1.27 billion vs. $1.19 billion expected

OpenAI’s CFO appeared to float the idea of a government bailout or funding… just days after CEO Sam Altman snipped at an investor for asking how the company can spend $1.4 trillion but only make $13 billion a year (The clip is pretty rough). But later that day, the CFO walked her “federal backstop” comments back on LinkedIn. Regardless, It’s not a good look for the company that’s at the forefront of the AI race; or at least, that wants us to believe it’s still at the forefront. After a lackluster GPT-5 launch earlier this year and strange PR moments like these, you have to ask: is OpenAI (and all the publicly traded companies heavily invested in it like NVDA, MSFT) in trouble?

Apple is tapping Google’s Gemini for a Siri AI overhaul. And it’s about time, in our opinion, because even though Apple has had a 15-year first-mover advantage in AI (Siri launched in 2010), they have seemingly done nothing to advance their own AI tech. All their competitors have left them in the dust. Still, it doesn’t seem to matter much, as Apple is the second-largest company in the world behind Nvidia. Obviously, selling the next iPhone with barely any changes made is still working!

Tesla shares surged 4% ahead of Thursday's shareholder meeting, where investors will vote on Elon Musk's $1 trillion pay package. Norway's $1.9 trillion sovereign wealth fund announced it will vote against the compensation plan, citing concerns about "the total size of the award, dilution, and lack of mitigation of key person risk." Because apparently even trillion-dollar funds have spending limits.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang warned that China “will win” the AI race with the US thanks to lower energy costs and faster infrastructure buildouts. NVIDIA's stock slipped 1.7% on the remarks, which came as the company faced tighter export restrictions and growing competition from AMD and Qualcomm.

President Trump called Fed Chair Jerome Powell a Nincompoop on live TV. That’s it, that’s the story.
